       About the Author

Image

      Tyler Greenblatt has been passionate about cars and motorcycles since day one. His parents hooked him on internal combustion when they had a jump seat installed in the back of their 1966 Sting Ray coupe so that a baby seat could be secured back there. The roar of a high-revving, small-block V-8 and the distinctly American smell of vinyl and gasoline had a lasting effect that led to a lifelong passion for cars, motorcycles, and off-road powersports vehicles.

      Tyler spent eight years in various editorial positions with American Iron Magazine, during which time he wrote 1001 Harley-Davidson Facts, which was published by CarTech Books in 2017. He followed that in 2018 with The Corvette Hunter: Kevin Mackay’s Greatest Corvette Finds, which was a joint effort with longtime friend and world-class Corvette restorer Kevin Mackay. His latest CarTech project, 1001 Steve McQueen Facts was his biggest undertaking yet, combining his love of both cars and motorcycles and his fascination with the King of Cool himself.

      Tyler and his wife, Danielle, live in Madison, Wisconsin, with their labradoodle, Dixie, and tortoise, Rambo. In addition to his daily-rider Harley, he enjoys working on, riding, and showing his 1982 Honda CBX and 1975 Yamaha DT175. He works full-time as a classic car and motorcycle auction specialist with Bring a Trailer Auctions and contributes regularly to Motorcyclist Online, one of the world’s leading motorcycle news sources.

       Acknowledgments

      Thank you to all the Steve McQueen biographers who laid the groundwork for this collection of trivia facts. My goal with this project was less about breaking new ground and more about honing in on the plethora of information that was already available. Unfortunately, many of the men and women associated with Steve McQueen are no longer with us, so again, I thank previous biographers for recording their testimony for generations to come.

      Thank you to my wife, Danielle, who lost me for far too many nights and weekends. I also apologize for the slew of dirt bikes that made their way into the garage; thanks to the desert exploits of Steve McQueen, I’ve become obsessed with off-road motorcycle riding.

      Thank you to my family too, for their support and СКАЧАТЬ
